Westward Cumbria Map

About Westward

Westward, a quiet corner of Cumbria, breathes with a subtle, enduring presence. It lies 3.9 km south-south-east of Wigton (from Wigton: bearing 152°T, OS grid NY 273 448), and is situated east of Bolton Low Houses village. The land here, unfurling with a patient grace, catches the diffused northern light, lending a soft luminescence to the fields that cradle Westward. Though small, its existence is marked by the enduring strength of stone farmsteads, their walls weathered by countless seasons, hinting at generations who have laboured and lived under the wide Cumbrian sky. The very air seems to carry the faint, earthy scent of turned soil, a constant reminder of the agricultural heart that beats beneath the hamlet's tranquil surface.
